Problem when update PS to latest version

[mohamadeffazuan]

Hi all,

 

Currently I'm using PS 1.5.1 and I want to update to version 1.5.4, but I'm afraid if I update to the latest version, the setting and all the coding changes that I made before will revert back to normal.

 

Is there a possibility it will happens?

 

Really hope I can get some advice here. Thank you.

Hi,

 

If you hardcoded your changes in your core files, well yes, they'll disappear. The only way to go would be installing 1.5.4 locally, then copy over the modifications, upgrade to 1.5.4 your modified version and replace those files from the ones of the newly modified 1.5.4. If you used overrides, no problems at all

Hi Nemo1. To your knowledge, what kind of changes could be preserved when using the override directories and what are the correct paths for these directories? Thank you!

Basically, you should keep a copy of your old, entire override folder, then simply copy it over the new installation once the upgrade is done. It might even not be necessary. If it is, be sure you delete the class cache in che cache folder
